Dear all,
We are happy to welcome you all to the first CCBIO Junior Scientist Symposium for this semester, March 10th, 2022. We are very excited that Professor Klaus Pantel will join us live from Germany for the keynote lecture. Professor Pantel has done pioneer work in the field of circulating tumor cells and molecules, and in the keynote lecture he will tell us the story about how liquid biopsies moved from discovery to clinical implementation. Local junior researchers will present topics including personalized treatment in breast cancer, therapy resistance in CML, and cell population kinetics in kidney fibrosis. We will also hear about advanced techniques including mass cytometry and get an introduction of a pipeline for spatial analysis of the tumor microenvironment.
We are very pleased to be able to finally meet in person, but the symposium will also be open for digital attendance. Please register within March 7th at 11.00 for those of you who want to attend in person, as LUNCH IS INCLUDED for onsite participation. For digital attendance you can register till the symposium starts.

Program: can be found here.
Registration: At ccbiojuss.no (Also even if you have registered for CCBIO901 in Studentweb.)
General information: More information about the Junior Scientist Symposia can be found here.
ECTS: Part of CCBIO901, with 3 credits (participation in the program through 2 terms.) All are however welcome for non-ECTS drop-in on each individual symposium. Perhaps you spot an interesting topic? Just remember to register!
